Help me give my students a greater chance to explore sports in a safe environment during recess.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Gale's classroom raised $162

My Project

My goal as a teacher is to give students a variety of options during recess to have fun and get moving. Through DonorsChoose.org, I have had a lot of success with flag football, and chess. The students have loved these new additions to the class.

That is why I would love to add this wiffle ball set in a safe and structured environment.

Often students may feel intimidated by baseball or softball, however with wiffle ball the chances of getting hurt are minimized.

Donations in the past have transformed my classroom, and I know that my students will appreciate your help. Let's get students moving for better health and confidence!
